This poem is a fine lesson for young people to read. I'm sure that many of them could identify themselves somewhere in the poem. Good luck in the contest.

Paul, I thank you so very much for always being so sweet and kind for your very nice comment for this poem. I appreciate them very much.
Comment from Janilou
This is a touching poem that speaks volumes in so few lines. Indeed, the world would be a much nicer place if this occurred. I enjoyed picturing the different scenes you wrote about and imagining those people learning from their mistakes to do better the next time.
Well done and all the best in the contest.

That was lovely. People can be so cruel, they just don't see what they are doing to the person their stupidity does to the person it's directed to. Very well done, and I wish you the very best of luck in the contest. :)) Sandra xx

A lovely poem.
I liked how your grandson echoed the words of the homeless boy when he said bullies should spend some time in the chair. It also echoed the theme of the poem - live in my shoes before you speak out about it.

This is a good entry in the Eye of the Beholder contest. The text is a great size. The message is clearly written and easy to understand. The lesson taught in this poem is one that children and adults need to learn. There are adult bullies too. Overall, the rhyming was okay.
The visual is okay, but one of a homeless person or one of a person in a wheelchair would fit your message better. Many would consider butterflies beautiful even one with eyes. Good luck in the contest.

Sandra, so sorry this is late. I have gotten so far behind and not going to make excuses because i know you know some of the issues. But I do appreciate you so much and I thank you for always being so kind and being such a sweet friend. I am so emotional lately. I cry at telling people how much they mean to me. Can you imagine what I would do if I had to tell you off.. hahaha!! Thanks again Honey!!

Earl, I am so sorry this is so late. I have been so far behind and didn't want to miss anyone, so I vowed to keep at it until I got them done. After being sick for about a week, it is amazing how fast they can build up. I thank you for this wonderful review and comments, and most certainly also your generous six stars. You have not idea how much I appreciate them all. Thanks again my dear friend.

Wow. I sat and read this one through three times! It's so indicative of the way things are in today's world. Everybody's got an opinion and few of us have the whole picture. Loved your poem and totally took your lessons to heart. I try, I really do. I'll try to do better!

Comment from Willie P. Smith
Our country is in a great deal of trouble. The homeless people are
a big concern. The money that could help the problem is going everywhere else. Biden has made the problem worse with his open border policy. We urgently need strong leadership. Willie

Wow, Willie, nobody feels stronger than I do against Biden, but this was a contest prompt to find the good in people. He is one of the few that I can't seem to find good in. You and I are on the exact same side where the president and his equally bright vice are concerned. What does that have to do with my poem.Are you rating this on an opinion or on the quality of the poem? What did I say wrong? I thought you were a friend. I am really confused. Why would you give me a one star rating for what has nothing to do with my poem. I am really hurt.

This is a very interesting contest. Yes. People often judge a book from its cover. Your grandson is very matured. You should be proud of him.
Well done.
